I noticed that my HFCC work units transitions from t1 to s1.
What is the difference? |

From the research page, ...the project's researchers are using computational methods to identify new candidate drugs that have the right shape and chemical characteristics to block three proteins - TrkB, ALK and SCxx ...
The t1 work units are for the TrkB protein, which we have been working on since the beginning. So I presume the s1 work units are now working on the SCxx protein. |

That would be great. Potentially 33% done.
----------------------------------------I wonder if we will get an official confirmation? I did just pick up another t1 that looks to have failed so maybe when they are all complete. The initial S1 I have gotten appear to take about 30% less time. [Edit 1 times, last edit by TimAndHedy at Nov 1, 2009 11:09:24 PM] |

Potentially 33% done. According to Sekerob's chart, it's more like 26% done currently. I second your request for an "official" statement on the status.  Regards, Martin  |

So are we trying to find one drug that will block all three proteins at once? That has to be an extreme long shot, but the reason we have a job to find it.
